ListMessages API Call Fails On Firefox

[jaxtonw]

Version: Redpanda Console v2.7.2

The ListMessages API call when viewing messages in a topic fails, but only on Firefox. Not having any issues utilizing Google Chrome. Sometimes the response is a 302, other times the request fails with an NS_BINDING_FAILED.

I've been able to narrow it down to the User-Agent being set as connect-es/1.1.2. When editing the request and using a User-Agent of Mozilla/5.0 (Windows NT 10.0; Win64; x64; rv:134.0) Gecko/20100101 Firefox/134.0, as is used on all other requests by my browser to the Redpanda Console, the request resolves as expected. Something is happening, only on Firefox, making it so the user agent is adjusted for only this request.

I believe that this relates to the @connectrpc/connect module: https://github.com/connectrpc/connect-es/blob/134f9ca0ca3cea7973182f4ea071e2d0a1a9c6dc/packages/connect/scripts/update-user-agent.mjs#L38

Unfortunately I am unable to attempt this on v2.8 at this time. My organization has been struggling to get v2.8 deployed. This issue may have been addressed in v2.8 already.
